The new semester just began and I'm already down with a virus after four days, but before that I managed to do a few things from here and there and of course, I've been to school. This time the registration for courses went much faster (15 minutes instead of 2.5 hours that we had to sit through in the summer registration). And I'm in a new language group, which means we're back to this awkward stage with new people and no one can really remember these funny foreign names of each other... so yes, awkward. And I have classmates from North-Korea - can't get any more exotic than that.

We have a couple of new courses - one of them Business Chinese and then there's the Human Geography of China. As you might've guessed, both of these subjects are in Chinese and besides these, we also have our intensive reading classes and listening classes. We should also have spoken Chinese classes, but we're already overloaded with subjects and have too many credits, so we don't have to take that. This means we have really chill Thursdays and Fridays with only two classes on both days, which also means the weekend will start really early now. Though this certainly will not mean I'll just lounge around all day long, oh no, I'll try to make use of this time as much as possible (as I always tell myself after any sort of vacation from school since I was about 12).

Been doing some more extraodrinary things during this week and will do some more, so bare with me for more details :)
